To the best of my understanding if you are doing bit perfect output to an external DAC you disable the volume control in JRiver. Try it, you'll like it.
I am considering changing my LCD-2 (rev.2) with another headphone - a headphone that will be less dark, will have bigger soundstage and that will play music with more air and openness. Will HE-560 fit the bill?
If I was to replace my LCD-2 with HE-560, what could I miss from LCD-2? What does LCD-2 better than HE-560?

Bingo, which I wasn't doing. Sounded pretty bad!
I Use the Lyr very happy with itIs anyone using their 560's on a tube amp - if so what kind?
Any WA6SE users out there?

Mmmmm am really curious what will happen from a professional point of view...and i am really curious why it takes so long for that successor..everyone else has come up with a new version of their totl model....
That's a hybrid though. To my understanding pure tube (OTL) with 560 is a bad idea, although there are probably exceptions.
Isn't a planar design less affected by output impedance differences which I think made OTL amps less well suited to low Z loads?
I got my balanced cable today. The warmer sound of the XLR output of my Yulong A18 makes a fine pairing with the HE560.
